Remove the Sim Lock on the Amazon Fire Phone – This is how it’s done for free!
Until now, owners of an Amazon Fire Phone have looked down the drain when it came to using the smartphone with a provider other than Telekom. If you wanted to use the Amazon Fire Phone with another provider, you had to put a good €100 on the table to remove the Sim Lock. The high purchase price and the limitation to the Telekom network has so far deterred many interested buyers from the Fire Phone. In addition to a price reduction for the smartphone, Telekom is offering free SIM lock removal for the Amazon Fire phone from December 15, 2014.
Attention update: Free unlocking is no longer possible. More on that in this post!
